When I was starting my own business, I always asked those successful businessmen either offline     1    online about their experiences. The best advice I ever got was similar to this statement: You are     2    (respond) for you own experience.

Soon I realized that this is true for everything in life.

In my opinion, one of mistakes that we make as     3    (human) is to look up to someone as our “role model”. Although the concept of “role model” is good,     4    it can potentially lead to can be dangerous. We always try to convince     5    (we) that if we copy their success story then we will be naturally end     6    with the same success. This isn’t true at all. It’s their experience that made them what they are. You can’t repeat that. Once I     7    (open) a firm to make electronic devices, and I regarded Bill Gates as my role model. I had thought that years later I would be as successful as him. But the result was just contrary to my     8    (expect), and I failed. As time went on, I realized that different persons have different strong points, abilities and capabilities. So stop     9    (try) to copy others’ experiences, but build your own. Enjoy what life throws at you and make the     10    (well) out of it.

I worked in a hospital as a nurse. One day I saw an elderly lady sitting outside a sickroom     1     (cry) without anyone offering help. I stopped and asked if she was okay. She said her husband was in the room, dying. I just sat there for a while, holding her hand and listening to her. This went on for weeks. One day, after the death of her husband, I saw her again. She greeted me, "I came back    2       (say) thank you. Thank you for sitting with me, listening to me, and just being there, helping me through this." I hugged her and wished her well. I walked away with tears in my eyes,     3     with my heart bursting with joy because I had been able to help someone through her darkest days.

From robots delivering coffee to office chairs rearranging     1     (they) after a meeting, a smart city project in China aims to put artificial intelligence     2     charge.

Last month, Danish architecture firm BIG and Chinese tech company Terminus     3     (discuss) plans to build an AI-run campus-style development in the southwestern Chinese city of Chongqing during     4     online global tech conference.

The project     5     (name) Cloud Valley, plans to use sensors and wifi-connected devices to gather data on everything from weather and pollution to people’s eating habits to meet residents’ needs     6     (automatic), said Terminus.

Cities around the world are racing to embrace technology to improve urban life by collecting data to address problems like traffic jams and crime. More than 500 smart cities are being built across China     7     (promote) growth in a global economic downturn. The city, which includes offices, homes, public spaces and self-driving cars     8     move around under the watchful eye of AI, is due for completion in about three years, according to Terminus.

Yet, like other smart cities, its tech-driven approach has raised privacy concerns.

“Isn’t all of this a little     9     (frighten)?” asked a conference-goer. Another attendee said smart cities risked becoming a threat to human rights if     10     (company) and governments didn’t take steps to limit surveillance (监视) and ensure inclusivity.
